    Has anyone noticed Eric Trump, Ivanka Trump, Trump himself and his wife have only made appearances on conservative-friendly Fox News? Neither of the Trump children have had the guts to defend their views on The View, or go on with prominent anchors such as Chris Matthews, who notably challenged Trump, even befuzzled the Manhattan businessman, on abortion views during last years campaign. The only instance where Trump has left the conservative beacon is his now infamous interview with Republican Lester Holt, on NBC News, where he blabbed about Russia being on his mind, basically forfeiting his executive power privileges all in one interview.

    Are Trump and Sons too scared to defend their positions, the Trump children too humiliated by their fathers words on Twitter to go out on the day shows, the primetime news shows, and justify their fathers actions? Don't they realize the only validation they are getting are by those who have the same views as theirs, laughable "smart conservatives" like Tucker Carlson?

    I think we all saw what happens when Trump and Sons, or their personnel, are not pampered or told they are right by the flip-flopping Trump's lawyer did with the only credible Fox News host, Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday."

    Shaming tactics? Check.

    Ad Hominem? Check.

    Verdict: Liberal Mouthpiece. Thank you for correcting the record here, very progressive of you.

    There's no reason to respond to something that's the argumentative equivalent of psychotic babbling. Sorry you feel like your inane rambling is worthy of a well thought out response, but it isn't. Just wait, your blue wave will be in here soon to shower you with praise for this thought provoking piece.

    Kinda like how Obama would not appear on FOX? He did finally do one interview with O'Reilly, late in his second term, if memory serves me.

    But really, given the hatchet jobs, the lies, the propaganda coming from MSM, why would they subject themselves to editing and dishonesty? Why grace the yellow journalists of MSM. I guess if they liked masochism they might do it. Otherwise, given that MSM is a part of the deep state Intel/MSM complex who are trying to take down a duly elected president. they would be fools to give them the time of day. And if they did, you trump haters would just call him or his sons, stupid. ROTFLMAO.

    Answer to opening post -- It's the opposite reason the dems won't go on Fox.

    Ah, let me think a moment. Let's see, they blew up Chevy trucks to prove that Chevy trucks blow up by themselves and they forged an AWOL letter about George W. Bush.

    Okay, now I remember why Trump shouldn't go near them.

    They don't want to be responsible for the wailing and anguish liberals would experience in proximity to their awesomeness.

    The networks no longer practice journalism, they practice advocacy. Why give them any time.

    "How come Trump and Sons will only go on Fox News?"

    Probably for the same reason Obama, Clinton, Pelosi, et al only go on liberal media and avoid Fox as much as possible. Obama was comfortable bashing Fox News as well as his administration investigating at least one of Fox's journalists. If the Obama Admin didn't border on a dictatorship, then there's no telling where that investigation would have ended up, appearances ya know.

    I know you're right, but I can't help myself. :smile:

    Defend themselves on "The View"?? Really?? That gaggle of gossiping biddies who wouldn't know an intelligent thought if it bit them in the rear?? Or even Chris "I feel a thrill up my leg" Matthews, who abandoned real journalism for tabloid level reporting a long, long time ago??

    You lost me with these. I won't ever get back the 5 seconds I wasted reading.

    Because Qusay and Uday Trump are grifters just the same as the rest of the Trump crime family.

    Hardball has been on longer than when Bill "Can't keep it in the pants" O'Reilly was on the air, Hardball both on radio and TV. Meet The Press has been on the air since the 30's or 40's. These bogeymen you conservatives believe exist would not exist as long as they have if they were indeed what you, and Trump, think they are. You know Matthews would get under Trump's skin more than Hannity or Carlson would, why deny that fact? If Matthews can trip Trump's leg over whether or not he's pro choice in a townhall setting, he'd have Trump babbling all over the Russia investigation, then about Jared Kushner and proof climate change is a hoax. When you say Russia doesn't matter, you must be okay-inherently, with Benghazi being okay as well, right?

    It's time to end the "Press are the enemy of the American People" hysteria.

    Your finding for a verdict didn't make sense, so I decided to craft a response that wasn't as serious as yours was. Didn't take more than ten seconds on my time.

    I'm not sure what relevance "Meet The Press has been on the air since the 30's or 40's" has to the discussion. I'm convinced it's zero, but please don't bother answering.

    Matthews was destroyed by Conway in an interview during the campaign, so your confidence is a little misplaced. When the man can't bully, he's like a bug under a magnifying glass in the hot sun. Matthews is essentially a book mark holder in a third rate network. Please keep perspective.

    BTW, I never said Russia didn't matter, but Obama seemed to say it. When Comey approached him about bringing attention to Russian interference last year, Obama said no thanks. Why disrupt Hillary's impending victory with interference non-sense?? :roll:

    When (or if) you're ever able to find balance and credibility in your thinking, please check back in. This is not very satisfying.

    Don't try to give Conway credibility. She has always come off with a robotic look, chirping robotic statements on behalf of the Trump Campaign, as if her mind was programmed to say them. I wish I was joking, I truly do, but absurd times call for absurd people. And I will tell you anyway how referring to MTP is relevant. Trump has put it into your mind and others the MSM is the enemy of the American People, or can't be trusted, and what network is disassociated from being part of this MSM? Fox News. And where is Trump's base always channeling into? Fox News. Hence, why Trump and his kids will go on there.

    Obama warned Trump about Comey, or did that get lost in the echo? But Trump initially said he was going to retain Comey, since Comey still had to fulfill his ten year term as FBI director. And BTW, nobody lawyers up over nonsense, let alone goes through the trouble of holding fundraisers to raise money for lawyer fees like Pence has.

    Don't try to give Conway credibility?? She orchestrated one of the biggest come back Presidential wins in political history. If that doesn't score credibility, you're living in an alternate universe.

    The MSM has caused it's own fall from grace. Their endless leftist slants, non reporting, and plain shoddy reporting have led to their overall loss of credibility among the American people. I'm getting tired of tossing the mail offers from the LA Times literally begging me to sign up again at 50% off. They're bleeding and they'll hopefully be gone within the next 10-20 years. No thanks.

    Don't divert about Comey. The fact is that Comey wanted to go public with known Russian interference in the middle of 2016. Obama said no. So please spare me the cries of Russian interference that come daily from the left. It's only a red herring in your rabid desire to bring down Trump.

    With Fox, Trump gets a fair hearing. That's proved impossible by anyone associated with the broader MSM. Don't you find it interesting that the MSM couldn't be bothered with broadcasting the full Trump speech the other night? Probably not.

    If there was Russian inference, wouldn't you think that would hurt Trump over Clinton? Given the Russians were working in Trump's favor, not Clinton's? Let's play with that hypothetical narrative for a moment. Let's say Obama gave Comey the pass, and we heard about it in September and October. Wouldn't that delude the outcry over Clinton and her emails and Benghazi, when Trump was getting a shady handicap so to speak? It would go beyond Hollywood Access tapes and tax returns, it would be proof it wasn't so 400 pound gorilla hacking into the DNC. Moreover, we would have had validation of Comey's claims, if Obama had given the go remember, with the WikiLeaks dumps. So really, if Obama had given Comey the go, then that would have helped Clinton. It definitely would put things on fair ground after Comey made that infamous July announcement.

    Conway was sucking with Ted Cruz, even with Teddy she was lying through her teeth. And I shouldn't have to provide you proof with that because its so blatant in nearly every appearance Conway made in September and October of last year, if not earlier. I never thought we'd get a worse liar for a representative than Conway, but then Spicer came around......

    Had Conway really turned around the campaign, Trump would've dropped the insults, dropped the false claims, and given up his Twitter account. Aside from stopping the inciting violence remarks at his rallies. But Conway did none of that.

    Really dude, Trump's speeches and South Park are equally entertaining, but if I'm going to waste my time, which one am I going to waste my time on? Trump's reading from a script, proofread by probably at least ten people, and rewritten to try backpedaling on Trump's previous statements and outbursts. That clip I saw of Trump this morning on Fox asking for democrats to come together made me laugh, Trump is the idea of division. Maybe he should come tot he table, scrap his ideas for the travel bans and defunding Planned Parenthood, and work toward single-payer healthcare, instead of pandering to insurance companies.

    Who says the Russians were working on Trump's behalf? The Marxist Democrats?

    Who do you think created the "Russian dossier"? The Australians?

    Hillary just got burned worse than Trump BECAUSE SHE DID WORSE!

    And the reason the Trump's go on Fox?

    BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE THE VIEWING AUDIENCE IS!

    Why go anywhere else!

    How about let's not.....

    You're having a really hard time staying focused. Maybe someone else with more patience can converse with you.
